I've just posted this in the R-class forum but appears to affect all MB's.

Hmm, that's interesting Nevada Jack. I was told every new MB wouldn't have it. A reply to my thread said it was disabled in 2006. You must be special!

My '07 S550 was built in Feb '06 so maybe the change had not been initiated yet? But I can tell you it works fine and if I do not have it in the GL with KG I will be disappointed.

Prepare to be disappointed! I certainly am. And not being able to display the temp is another.

Love the car though. It's not van-like at all, as some have described it.
